Choosing Hawaiʻi

Unlike any other state, Hawai‘i offers the diversity and appeal of an international destination with the familiar comforts and conveniences of working in the United States. Hawai'i’s exceptional year-round weather, beautiful natural environment, unique venues, and, culturally-focused CSR opportunities to mālama (care for) and give back creates an atmosphere that fosters creative, out-of-the-box thinking and meaningful interactions among attendees.

Why Hawaiʻi

Testimonials

The staff are a first-class act. They have shared the spirit of aloha, not only with the organizing staff but also with every single attendee and that's a way of spreading aloha around the world.”

Welcome to Hawaiʻi Island

Take a road trip into the great wide open on the youngest and largest of the Hawaiian Islands. Nearly twice as big as all of the other Hawaiian Islands combined, the island of Hawai‘i’s vast, isolated expanses are awe-inspiring. Your attendees can see some of the most pivotal sites in Hawaiian history and visit a volcano, while traveling through all but four of the world’s different climate sub-zones. From the crystal blue waters of the Kona and Kohala Coasts to the black sands of Punaluʻu to the lush botanical gardens and waterfalls of the Hāmākua Heritage Corridor, there is a world of diversity to experience on this rich, storied island that invites exploration, adventure and restoration.

Things to Do

Maui

Maui is the best of both worlds, with a unique blend of sophistication and simplicity. Taste the fresh bounty produced year-round by the farms and lush gardens surrounding the quaint communities of Upcountry Maui. Discover the beauty of Haleakalā National Park with a daytime hike full of exploration. Or, simply lounge on the beach or pool-side at a luxurious resort, from Kapalua to Wailea.

On August 8, 2023, wildfires resulted in the devastating loss of loved ones, homes, cultural and historical sites, and businesses in Lahaina, located in West Maui. With the exception of the fire-effected areas of Lahaina, Maui is open for group business and there is plenty to see and experience, however, we urge visitors to be especially respectful and mindful as our community continues to heal.
